Request a Spec Review →Yes. LibertyCES has documented Chemical Scrubber in Chemical Processing applications, including Perry APOLLO/OMEGA/ODYSSEY and custom PP packed-bed scrubber. The right model depends on the fluid, concentration, temperature, flow and duty cycle, so send James your process data for a free spec review before final selection.
Notes from the vendor documentation
LibertyCES case study documents a custom polypropylene HCl fume scrubber at a California chemical processing plant.
Products cited in this application
Real Specifications
| Spec | Value | Source document |
|---|---|---|
| Case study material spec | Custom high-impact polypropylene (PP) packed-bed wet scrubber specified for HCl vapor control, with chemical-resistant PP ducting | LibertyCES field case study: California HCL Fume Scrubber |
| Engineering rule (verbatim) | "Polypropylene is commonly selected for hydrochloric acid fume control because it resists corrosion better than many metals in acid vapor service." | LibertyCES field case study: California HCL Fume Scrubber |
| Monitoring/controls | pH monitoring with automated alarms integrated into the packed-bed scrubber system | LibertyCES field case study: California HCL Fume Scrubber |
| Vessel size range (Perry APOLLO/OMEGA/ODYSSEY) | 12" to 168" diameter | Perry Fiberglass Products |
| Packing media options | Polypropylene, Kynar, Glass Filled, Ceramic, PVC | Perry Fiberglass Products |
The plant's core problem before this scrubber was corrosion escalation — HCl fumes degrading ducting, valves, and metal assets — which is the exact failure mode PP construction with chemical-resistant PP ducting is specified to eliminate.
This California plant was losing ducting, valves, and metal assets to HCl fume corrosion before the switch to a custom high-impact PP packed-bed scrubber with pH-monitored automated alarms. Most suppliers sell what you're asked for; Liberty CES, under James Riggins's 30+ years of zero-failure spec experience, determined polypropylene construction was what the application actually required.
